Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Crust

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crushed vanilla wafers, melted butter, and sugar. Stir until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish. Make sure the crust is packed tightly for the best texture.

Bake for 15 minutes until lightly golden and fragrant.

Remove the crust from the oven and allow it to cool completely before adding the next layer.
